HP Omnibook 6100

HP Omnibook 6100

[Andreas Happe]

I cannot use ACPI on my Omnibook 6100 (i830m) with 2.4.17 or with
2.5.6+. Before 2.5.~16 (if this matters, i could rebuild my kernels to
verbose this) the kernel booted with a "ACPI subsystem not initialized,
disabling ACPI" - message, later kernels just go OOPS.

When using "Use ACPI for processor enumeration only" the kernel stays
stable but tells me that it could find the processor table.

thank you in advance
Andreas Happe

Sorry, but nobody on this list will care about problems you have with
2.4.17 or 2.5.16 kernels -- they are way to old.

Try 2.5.31, or 2.4.18 with a recent patch from http://sf.net/projects/acpi,
or wait a couple of days for the first "official" ACPI patch for 2.4.19
to appear. If those kernels don't work for you, post again to this list
and include your dmesg output along with a description of what goes wrong.

Good luck,
Arndt
